Yeah, seeing those kind of things is pretty scary. For the most part, the 4 women in the Jeep I saw flip were okay, but one did have a bump on her head the size of a softball. Amazing to think that a vehicle can flip so many times and people aren't very injured. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't plan on trying that kind of stuff out in my F-350 just to see if I can walk away without any injuries.

I wonder why we hear about the SUV flipping problem but we do not hear anything about pickups. Is it because pickups don't have quite as high a center of gravity? I know my F-350 is the same frame and almost everything else as the Ford Excursion, but the Excursion just has a roof over the bed. The Expedition is the same thing as the F-150, but with the roof over the bed. Is it just because people that drive pickups have been driving them long enough to understand that you cannot make quick corrections while driving them?
